I use the Eye-one photo to produce custom colour profiles, and have recently started using it to help with QTR. I would like to be able to measure print density so I can compare figures with those that others produce, but I can't figure out how to do this with the eye-one Measure or Share tools. I can only seem to get Lab readings Can anyone help me out? or is it not possible Cheers Richard

Get a product called Babelcolor.
(www.babelcolor.com)It is about $60 and does a
wonderful job controlling the eye-one. You can get
direct density readings a la a densitometer.

Type in an L* value, click the L* button, and the other values will be computed from it. (The radio buttons only pertain to the graph--you can ignore them.) -- Ciao, Paul D.
